Governor Josh Shapiro is determined to bring adult-use cannabis legalization to Pennsylvania, and there’s exciting potential for opportunity on the horizon! Although it wasn’t included in the state budget signed into law in July, Governor Shapiro is committed to pushing forward with cannabis reform efforts. He recently emphasized the substantial revenue—estimated at over $250 million annually (other sources have reported as high as a half a billion dollars)—that PA stands to gain, joining neighboring states with adult-use cannabis programs like Ohio, New York, and New Jersey in this thriving side of the industry. Despite current challenges, the governor’s administration is optimistic and plans to revisit the issue in upcoming legislative sessions, promising a brighter future for Pennsylvania’s cannabis market!

A bill recently introduced in the state House and a similar bill that was filed in the Senate last year would allow recreational usage at 21 years of age and expunge nonviolent cannabis convictions, such as possession. A bipartisan pair of representatives introduced a bill at the end of June 2024 that estimates over 420 million dollars in tax revenue could be generated by 2028 by a new, legal, adult-use market in Pennsylvania’s cannabis industry.

Whether this is your initial step into the cannabis industry or you’re looking to expand a well-established business, choose a consultant team who is not only well-versed in current Pennsylvania state regulations but is aware of where laws are headed. Along with the medical marijuana market, there is some forward momentum for legalizing recreational cannabis for adults 21 and older.
